Hi,
The design tree should have a method to lock assemblies from expanding. My drawings have around many parts and assemblies and after clicking for dimensions the tree expands to the endless list of items I don't need to focus on. A lock would keep closed the items supposedly finished.
In an assembly when top down edit of a part is selected, turn it blue, move it to the top of the tree display field and expand it. This will make it much easier to use.
Thanks,
Brian
